The Gospels Of Mary (QuakerBooks)

The Gospels Of Mary

The Secret Tradition Of Mary Magdalene, The Companion Of Jesus

BY MARVIN MEYER AND ESTHER DEBOER

Brief Description:
The Gospels of Mary presents English translations of the earliest and most reliable texts that shed light on Mary Magdalene, collected here for the first time. As Marvin Meyer states in his Introduction, these texts unveil her importance as Jesus' beloved disciple and an apostle and evangelist in her own right, a figure whose importance for Christianity is only now emerging from the shadows of history. Included are selections from the New Testament Gospels and from the Gnostic Gospels and other texts, including the Gospel of Mary, the Gospel of Thomas, and the Gospel of Philip. Esther de Boer sets Meyer's translations in the context of the latest scholarship.
